Not the snowiest day, not the snowiest month, but the snowiest year on record! Three times in six years. That is worrisome to me.
After living in Rhinelander for six winters, Jaron Childs has seen three of the snowiest years on record including 2019.
In February, nearly 62 inches of snow hit the ground.
Adding to 2019’s record was the 17 inches that fell n November and more than 25 inches in December.
In total, Rhinelander saw 133.9 inches of snow in 2019, according to Newswatch 12 Chief Meteorologist Geoff Weller.
Rhinelander’s previous modern-day records came in 2013 with 99 inches and 2014 with 131.5 inches. Before that, Rhinelander saw the most snowfall on record in 1950 with 108.2 inches.
